Perfecting the Saints — One Lesson at a Time
Downloaded from: http://brosimonsays.wordpress.com/2013/05/08/1-3-peter-the-gospel-truth-is-gnot-a-secret/ I had the title song for “Mission Impossible” (an appropriate version) playing in the background as student entered class. It would be fun to dress in a way that fits the lesson, but I did not have that much forethought… There were TOP SECRET folders on each desk when the students came in (Except for […]
Downloaded from: http://primarynotes29.blogspot.com/2013/05/holding-hands-around-world-mail-swap.html I decided to incorporate a mail swap when we learned the song Holding Hands Around the World. I found two Primaries in Italy and Japan to do our mail swap with (our Utah Ward was big enough to split with two other Wards). Finding a Ward turned out to be trickier than I thought, but I pulled it off. So, if you want to do this be sure…

Downloaded from: http://seminaryatsixam.blogspot.com/2013/05/the-infinite-atonement.html I am the first to support and understand the need to use CES Curriculum and support when teaching Seminary. When preparing Seminary lessons, I am careful to use stories, quotes, and examples straight from the teachings of ancient and modern day Prophets and Apostles.With that in mind, I highly recommend this book, The Infinite Atonement, by Tad R Callister to Seminary, Institute, and all teachers and students…

Downloaded from: http://aprimarysingingtime.blogspot.com/2013/05/second-mothers-day-idea.html Update – in the end I got enough responses to use my original idea and, especially with the blow dryer box, it was really fun!! So . . . you win some you lose some. Time to simplify. I have only gotten a few responses back on my “Mother’s Day Guess Who”, so time to come up with a BACKUP PLAN in case I can’t get enough…

Downloaded from: http://brosimonsays.wordpress.com/2013/05/06/2-peter-1-3-ladder-day-saints/ We began by having the Young Women recite the Young Women’s Theme. Then I asked the students to look for one of the values that Peter mentions in 2 Peter 1:1-4. Once they identified “divine nature”, I asked them to explain what it meant. It was surprising to them that they did not really understand what “divine […]
Downloaded from: http://brosimonsays.wordpress.com/2013/05/06/1-peter-1-5-peters-principles-prepare-peculiar-people-2-day-lesson/ This was such a success! The positive feedback that I received from the students as a result of this lesson makes me feel that it may have been their best experience all year. They felt like they could really evaluate where they stand as a member of the Church, and they absolutely LOVED being able […]
Downloaded from: http://aprimarysingingtime.blogspot.com/2013/05/president-monson-favorite-things-cards.html I mentioned in my post about President Monson that I found a great link with interesting facts about him and beautiful pictures. There are far too many to use today, or even this month, so I have decided to incorporate a “President Monson’s Favorite Things” bit throughout the year. Every now and then I will put one or two of these laminated cards under the kids’ chairs,…

Downloaded from: http://aprimarysingingtime.blogspot.com/2013/05/teaching-i-want-to-live-gospel-519.html Since I’m keeping the kids so busy the first couple of Sundays in May (Mother’s Day song, all about President Monson), I’m going to focus exclusively on our song for the month the third Sunday. Our Presidency picked “I Want to Live the Gospel”. I’ll introduce the song as suggested in the June 2007 Friend: “Ask the children, “What do you want?” Give many children an opportunity…

Downloaded from: http://aprimarysingingtime.blogspot.com/2013/05/pop-up-puppet-review-tool.html I love the internet. Today I was brainstorming how to get Jr. Primary to review the Mother’s Day song when ‘Singing Magic’ posted a list that included a pop-up puppet that comes out only when the kids are singing really well. Perfect! Putting it together took all of ten minutes. I used a large fruit snack box – light, just big enough for my hand but not…
